Decided to dip my RX7 with Anthracite grey until the summer comes....for my first dip I'm pretty happy

 

I think it looks great.

 

looks good. I have this as something to look into. is it just like spray painting your car?

 

More close up pics please preferably without rain... i want to see the texture...

 

In a way but a lot more durable

 

just watched a couple videos on it. pretty cool.

how much to do a car?

 

Does this help

 

Got some rust removed, car dipped, wheels dipped and windows tinted for 750

 

looks nice man. although personally i would have dipped rims a different color. but its still nice work though!

 

I have done my 3rd ge. in BLURPLE (purple, Blue) and it is holdong really well through the winter months. I had it on since August I think. I have some photos floating around here on the forums. Great stuff and real cheap considering what a real paint job costs. I plan on peeling this summer for a different color...

 

Single exahust on the driver side? I might've seen you on 95 south on Sunday; if so, car looks really good in person!

 

Haha yea that was probably me

 

That will take a lot of color sanding. LOL

 

I am almost certain we'll be dipping the Z, hopefully very soon...so I have some questions.

How does it hold up to everyday stuff like birdshit or tree sap?
The guy I spoke to at a franchised Dip Garage made a big deal about the number of coats- seven everywhere and an extra four on the lower body/rockers, etc.- did you guys get that?
How much material did it take and at what cost?

What condition was the car in and what level of prep did you do?

 

Plasti dip is very thin. An fc would probably take 2.5/3 gallons. I dipped my wagon, crx and 350z. the wagon and crx have been outside the whole time and have lasted all winter fine no rips i even pressure washed them. Its very durable if applied with a lot of coats.

 

I had about 7/8 coats put on mine

 

Mine took about 7/8 good coats

 

can you clear coat over this product?

 

That is super clean looking.

 

where did you find the different colors of plasti dip?

 

Never Never Never put clear coat on platis dip. You will not be able to peel the dip. There is a video on how this turned out on Youtube......

I put 7 to 8 coats on mine. About 3 gallons for an RX7 max....

 

Bishop here is the link for the dip your car website. They have all kinds of stuff.

Plastidip sells a glossifer to put over it on their website.

 

I recently cleaned up some rust on my car and sprayed over it with Permatex rust stopper. Would there be any kind of reaction from the rust stopper or any kind of bubbling that would happen in those areas? I am pretty interested in this since it doesn't cost much and would be really easy to touch up spots that get dinged or anything. Does anyone have any experience with putting plastidip over rust stopper?

 

Mine had rust stopper on it before and it's turned out perfectly fine
